Ok, thanks Nick.

Hi All, I'm thinking of treating myself to PILOTS Global Ultimate NG 2020 mesh for P3D4.5. Is it good? And especially, hope it doesn't mess up airport elevations. Comments/advice please, Don.

Ignore please, already repled to by Nick in P3D4 support, Don.

Thanks Nick, I'll try that. Presumably turbine reverser relates to reverse thrust on touchdown, for jets? Don.

Hi All, P3D4.5...one or two aircraft in my hangar will move forward - slowly - when on the ground, when throttle is set at idle. Not a big problem - I know I can use the brakes or set parking brake...but I'd rather the plane stayed stationary when on idle. Is there a simple way to achieve this? Presumably it can be done by reducing slightly the plane's thrust/prop speed when throttle lever is set at minimum? Any help/advice please? Don.

Well Guys, thanks for all the replies... especially the more imaginative ones! I've had a look now, selecting each plane then checking the external view. And the W stands for....Winglets! Thanks again, Don.

Hi All, This might be a no-brainer, but here goes. I have a freeware fleet of Boeing 737-800 aircraft...apparently the Boeing Classic Class: 300...300W...400...400W...500...and 500W. Question is, what does the W designate? All the panels seem identical, but presumably the W must mean something, otherwise why include them? Any info appreciated, Don.

I prefer the landing gear on a 737! Don.

I use Rift S for VR. How is P3D5 in VR...noticeably better than P3D4.5? Don.

Thanks Smudger, Don.

Hi All, Hope it's ok to ask this here. I'm really keen to get Bathurst Harbour into my scenery. I've downloaded and unzipped the relevant file from AVSIM: tasmanian_bush_stripsv1. The readme iinstall instruction say: "Unzip the contents of this zip file to a temporary file and place the folder "TasmanianbushStrips" in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\addon Scenery Next, run Flight Simulator X and click on the settings tab, find the "Scenery Library" button. Once the "Settings - Senery Library" window has opened, click add area and navigate to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\addon Scenery\TasmanianbushStrips and press Ok. Thats it!" I've tried adding the file to P3D's addon folder, which appears to be in Documents. However, when I try to make the link in Scenery Library the file appears at the top, above Orbx libraries...but when I press ok it says location not recognised. Can anyone who has successfully install Bathursr Harbour, with the other four strips, into P3D4.5 pleas tell me how. I don't really want to install the whole of of Ozx as I'm quite happy with the great Orbx demo Tasmania. Thanks for any help, Don

Well chaps, thanks for all your helpful advice - much appreciated. What a fantastic forum! Don.

Hi All, How dow I delete unwanted liveries from my fleet? I have quite a few freeware aircraft in my hangar...but some of them come wirh a ton of liveries which I dont want. Can I select the unwanted liveries and remove them from my hangar? If so, how? Thanks for advice/info, Don.

Bernie, much appreciated - I'm off to Ozx! Don.
